QUEEN (Elizabeth)
But playwrights teach us nothing about
love, they make it pretty, they make
it comical, or they make it lust. They
cannot make it true.

VIOLA
(blurts)
Oh, but they can!

From the screenplay Shakespeare in Love by Marc Norman and Tom Stoppard

How to Write a Sonnet
If you're looking for a new way to say "I love you," try writing a sonnet to your object of affection. Then, if you have the guts, send it to me and I'll publish it on kimsaid.

I just took the Dante test and I scored a Level 3. But I really think I was too harsh on myself during the question and answer phase. Then I made the mistake of taking the Personality Disorder test. I have high potential to be a narcissist and a hysteric. Nice. Why is it we're always trying to find the worst in ourselves?
